A tiny country, not far away. History has left its mark, the future is in no hurry to happen. Grey on grey, the apartment blocks crowd in on one another. The residents tell themselves this is the most beautiful country in the world. Still, one young woman dreams of elsewhere. She wonders what lies beyond the border, what else life might have to offer. The Internet’s reply is always the same: ‘This content is not available in your country.’
